you dont have to wait just prepare the cage with bedding and food.etc then leave your hamster alone in the cage for 2 days so he or she gets used to her surroundings. so the in a week you could start giving he or she treats and let it explore your hand.
you open the door of the cage and cup your hands and try to pick him up from underneath if he/she bites you use gloves or a towel
Yes, it'd be best for the new hamster who is coming in to the cage. And would be much more sanitary.
When it is just running around in the cage doing nothing but not when it is asleep!!!!!!
You just put a small bowl of hamster food in its cage, when its hungry it will eat.
It might be from being in their cage too long. Just take the hamster out for awhile and clean the cage and if it doesn't improve take it to the vet.
Yes! They can o have my hamster In a 860 square inch bin cage and it works great! Just don't house a gerbil in it because the will chew out, but a hamster will be perfectly fine!
If you are not going to take the hamster to the vet, I would suggest that you put the hamster back in its cage. If there are no apparent signs of blood, just keep it in cage and keep it warm for the hamster, no drafts. See what it is doing after a couple of days. Sometimes, a little time is all they need to heal. Just watch the hamster. Don't attempt to pick it up for any reason until you see it out an about under its own power in its cage by itself. It is OK to pet it but do not attempt to pick it up.
The hamster probably won't be affected, just make sure there's plenty of things inside the cage for the hamster to do.
They shred those paper thingies in the hamster cage just like any other hamster.
Yes unless another hamster has lived in it before. The best thing to do is to switch cages from time to time with your hamster if you buy a new cage. So he can get used to the newer cage while being in his or hers normal habitat. If you just want a hamster wonderland than i recomend buying another cage with some tubes to connect the cages.
no Bunny's are really cute animals, and also i put a hamster in a cage with a bunny,and the bunny just stared at the hamster and fainted
Well, It can be 6 foot tall if you like just make sure that the hamster cant climb out! If you get a cage with bars MAKE SURE that your hamster cant get out. If you get a barred cage also make sure that there is plastic at the top (so your hamster cant get out) Have a great time with your hamster
